This release includes real crucial updates to the last one (0.0.1.1). The classes are almost ready to go into beta testing. The next release (v0.0.1.3) will be the last one on the alpha test if needed. The only thing remaining is exhaustive testing of features and modification of some of the constructors. The next release might just do that and might do much more. If the needed modifications were affordable, then we might go to the next step of development, the development of control specific Style Classes. Things like ParagraphStyle, MarqueeStyle, TableStyle, HeaderStyle, DocumentStyle ... etc might vome out to the light even in the next release. The development of such classes will be much easier now that the base style classes are done. These planned classes will just inherit the ElementStyle Class gaining access to its powerful features. One major feature to be added is reading in CSS text styles and converting them to appropriate style objects. This might seem easy at first, but the details of it require much time. One thing to note is that in real life, a CSS string might contain a TextStyle element followed by a FontStyle one and then another TextStyle element. This will make it hard to group the tokenized string and coping with the empty white characters and the like. We hope to implement that in the next version of the library however, so sit tight, the next release will not take long!
Please read the release notes for version 0.0.1.2 to catch up with the most important changes/enhancements that this version contains over the last one.
Enjoy!
